PRELIEEENAR ANNOUNCE
MENT OF THE CAPAX VAL
LEV LAND COMPANY.

Prior to the location of the line OF the
Woodland, Capay and Clear Lake Rail
road, the Capay Valley Land Company,
a corporation composed chiefly OF the
Directors and Officers of the southern
Pacific Company, purchased on the
line of the proposed road, and
chiefly in Capay Valley itself, through
which the road is being extended from
Madison in Yolo counly-Seyeral large
bodies of the choicest lands to be found
IN that beautiful and fertile valley
The construction ofthe Woodland, Cap
ay and Clear Lake RAILROAD is be .pg
pushed with great euergy ana will reach
very early complexion. The line OF
this road passes Immediately thr ugh
II lands owned by the Capay Valley
Land Company, which lands viii be
hmm ed lately subdivided into small
tracts, veral town SITES established
and the lands and the town property
placed Oh the market.
Capay Valley is located or the west
ern side Of Yolo county, and is one of
the most fertile and picturesque vail eys,
on the Pacific Coast. The lands in this
valley have heretofore been owned in
large holdings: the growing OF wheat
has been the chief agricultural indus
try, which, owning to the great fertility
ofthe soil, RE warmth anG salubrIty of
the climate, the heavy annual precipi-
tation OF rain, and the perfect protection
which the confgEl alton OF the valley
affords against north winds, has proven
highly profitable. At intervals, how
ever, throughout the valley, orchards
may be seen, and these ext eriments
in the line of horticulture have demon
strated the full capabilities of the valley
for the growth OF all ci,rus, semi-tropl-
cal and temperate fruits. Orange aud
lemon trees of the most thrifty growth
may be seen in the gardens and Or
chards. Grapes, apricots, figs, pears,
cherries, almonds, peaches, and all the
other fruits to be found in the most IA
vored localities, reach here the greatest
perfection. The very earliest fruits and
Vegetables appearing in San Francisco
and other markets is grown in this val
ley. With respect to early production,
Capay Valley ranks fully with, fnot su-
perior to, the cele brated Va ca and Pleas
ant valleys. This fact alone confers
very high premium upon the lanos to be
offered. The orchardist, vineyardist and
gardner of Capay Valley can place ripe
fruits and vegetables in the San Fran
cisco and Chicago markets at the high
rate usually obtaiRabIe for early fruit.
and from four to six weeks in advances
of nearly every other portion OF the
state of California. Under com pIetely
analogous conditions in Vaca Valley,
lands b ave reached valuation 1880 an
acre, and have proven highly prom table
investments at that price. The lands
10 be offered by the Capay Valley Land
Company are in all respects equal in
fertility, and lie under equal climatic
advantages with the most favored Or
chard and garden lands of the state.
One ofthe leading objects offhe pur-
chase ofthis land by a syndicate OF per-
sons interested in the success or the
railroad TO be constructed was to secure
The subdivision ofthe land into small
holdings, and to promote the density
of settlement. Keeping this ooJect
steadily in view, some of the largest
an most fert lie tracts will be subdl-
vided into ten and twenty acre lots, and
individuals will be strictly limited 10
the ownership Of a single lot. Town
sites will be located as re4r to the CEN
ter ofthe tracts as may be found con-
venient or jadicioug, aad ths Purehas-
